Post Code changes to support Adafruit Motor Shield V2

Hello all - I'm wondering if anyone has successfully implemented using the Adafruit Motor Shield V2? I've made modifications based on some feedback on the Polargraph Instrucables article (http://www.instructables.com/id/Polargraph-Drawing-Machine/), but can't get past the "too big to compile" issue...

many thanks

Hi Sandy
It doesn't make sense that the firmware is not modified to the V2 motor shield since the adafruit website doesn't sell the V1 shield anymore. How am i supposed to make the polargragh drawing machine work according to the instructables site then?

Very good point, I've updated the instructable to discuss it - thanks.

Hi Sandy,
Thanks for the quick reply. Is there anyway I can modify the firmware myself on the arduino ide? I have a drawing project due on the coming tuesday and I have spent two week working on this project. It's just so frustrating that i got all the hardware setup but just the wrong code for the firmware. Thanks a ton!

Here on this very forum is the code you are looking for - http://www.polargraph.co.uk/forum/polargraphs-group2/troubleshooting-forum5/trouble-getting-motors-to-move-thread264/ but I haven't tested it.

grand!
